Hi Martin, If you're thinking about getting the book, you could also first watch this video where Jeffrey Mishlove discusses it with Kastrup https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2E500ELKYKE I think Kastrup's big strength is that he's very up to date when it comes to physics and neuroscience. But he also ...

how astrology actually works

Hi everybody, I've created a youtube video that tries to answer the question how astrology and cartomancy (and telepathy) actually work. It's based on my reading of the book 'Decoding Jung's Metaphysics' by philosopher Bernardo Kastrup. It's kinda technical and epic, 42 minutes long, but if you're i...

To be honest, the restrictions you choose to put around your topic feel quite unnatural to me. So it's probably best for me to shut up. I probably got confused by the title of this thread, which sounds more philosophically. I'm left with one question which deserves its own thread: why would it be a ...

dubbhism, thanks for an interesting discussion. 1. Most of what astrologers look at does not exist in any "real" sense. What we look at are long-standing cultural conventions: signs, houses, degrees, essential dignities, constellations, lots, aspects, planetary rulerships. I'd prefer to l...

So if Mercury retrograde is not an accurate description of the planet's orbit but it does correlate with mythologically derived "inaccurate communication" in a big data study, what does this say about the cultural cosmos? In general i would assume that meaning insofar as it's being mediat...

hey waybread, i wasn't referring to the Mercury Retrograde slides, i was referring to this article: Twitter Followers Biased to Astrological Charts of Celebrities (Published in the Journal of Scientific Exploration) https://www.dropbox.com/s/cpm5359n308wmkm/JSE%20291%20Oshop.pdf?dl The Mercury Retro...

The minute the talk turns to statistics, suddenly the astrologer becomes invisible. But waybread, only a few posts ago i gave an example of (excellent) peer reviewed research by Renay Oshop published in a fine scientific journal, based on big data and solid statistics. What exactly is not good enou...

Surely you're familiar with how much real estate around the zodiac a 10-degree orb for the sun in relation to another planet using only the major aspects would occupy: 160 degrees out of 360, by my calculation. Orbs are subjective, quantitative calibrations of the results. In the 'automated' approa...

Thanks a lot for that unique astrology, i'm not sure that your analysis would change Cicero's mind, but the plot certainly thickens. It is my impression that there are quite a few extraordinary things happening during the big battles between Rome and Hannibal. Personally i focus on asteroids like Ha...

I see astrology a little bit different. The mind of the astrologer probably does play a very big part, and i do agree that signs, houses, lots and constellations are in some sense invented but i don't think aspects are pure inventions, because that would suggest to me that the whole of mathematics a...

If i could travel in time or predict the future, i would be interested to find out if we ever get asteroids named after famous Nazis. This would be a very bad sign of course, and i'm guessing this will never happen, but then again, Pyrrhus, Caesar, Hannibal and Attila already got lucky. The synchron...
